<<The press in cage can be made out of something like 1/8 inch wire mesh.  Cut
and bend to create a cage about 3 x 4 inches and a tunnel entrance.  One
side is open and it is pressed into the comb.  This is a rather poor
description.  If there is interest perhaps someone will do better or you
can ask and I will elaborate.  The press in cage is interesting and perhaps
someone with a picture and a scanner could make it available.>>
 
 
 
I have been thinking about which is the best queen intro cage.  I have seen
and used the following:
 
1. standard wooden/wire mesh cage with candy plug
 
2. cardboard Ashurst Sureway Queen Cage
 
Are there any other queen intro cages on the market?  Which ones work the best?
